OPERATIONS:

• Investment in FAM REIT generated $0.5 million in distributions and management fee revenue of

$1.1 million during the quarter, compared to management fee revenue of $0.5 million in the first quarter. The increase was largely due to the $0.4 million acquisition fee related to FAM REIT's purchase of an Ontario office property in May 2013.

• On a same-property basis, NOI decreased by $0.6 million when compared to 2012 primarily due to lower occupancy associated with the consolidation of tenant operations at ground-leased properties and property specific non-renewals at two Manitoba properties.

• On a sequential basis, FFO decreased to $2.5 million from $3.1 million. The three months ended March 31, 2013 included a $1.5 million fair value gain on the Corporation's investment in KEYreit, which increased FFO for the previous period. Excluding the $1.5 million fair value gain, FFO for the three months ended June 30, 2013 has improved as a result of lower general and administration costs and the growth in FAM REIT.

• Quarterly AFFO has increased to $2.6 million from $1.9 million on a sequential basis, driven by lower general and administration costs and higher management fee revenue.

CAPITAL STRUCTURE:

• Interest coverage ratio remains robust at 2.5 times coverage for the current quarter.

• Conservative and flexible capital structure with debt to total assets ratio declining to 38.3%.

• Significant liquidity with approximately $47 million of available cash.

STRATEGIC UPDATE:

• $10.0 million SIB for the purchase and cancellation of 800,000 common shares at $12.50 per share closed on August 9, 2013. SIB was accretive for remaining shareholders as the net book value per common share as at June 30, 2013 increased by 1.9% or $0.29 per share.

• During the quarter, the Corporation realized the majority of its investment in KEYreit from the take-over bid from Plazacorp Retail Properties Ltd.

OUTLOOK:

Management continues to focus on maximizing the value of its remaining portfolio of 36 properties. This will require the re-positioning of certain properties and selective longer-term capital investment. The turnaround of certain properties is also dependent upon local economic factors. In light of this, Huntingdon has implemented incentive programs to attract tenants.
Huntingdon's leasing and marketing team continues to work with various third party leasing agents to lease-up portfolio vacancies. In respect of the ground-leased properties, management has renewed two large tenants representing approximately 50,000 sf on multi-year terms at escalating lease rates.

With significant cash on hand and a strong management team in place, Huntingdon is positioned to make accretive investments and maximize shareholder value. On August 2, 2013, Huntingdon subscribed for 425,532 trust units of FAM REIT, for a total investment of $4.0 million. Huntingdon now holds an approximate 26% interest in FAM. In August 2013, FAM REIT waived conditions on a $39.0

million acquisition of an office property in Mississauga, Ontario, which will result in annual recurring fees of $0.4 million and non-recurring transaction fees of $0.5 million.

Joint Arrangements.

2 Interest coverage ratio does not have a standard meaning prescribed under IFRS and as such may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other publicly traded entities.

4 Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") is defined as net income adjusted for income taxes, fair value adjustments to investments and investment properties, realized gains or losses on disposal of investment properties and finance costs. The amount is calculated on a trailing twelve-month basis. EBITDA is a supplemental non- IFRS financial measure of operating performance and is not defined under IFRS.

equivalents divided by EBITDA as per footnote #4.

NOI, FFO and AFFO are not recognized as appropriate earning measures under IFRS, and are not construed as an alternative to earnings determined in accordance with IFRS, but are considered a useful supplemental indicator of the Corporation's performance.
